@lakapativanilla surprise us with their crystallised Planifolia Vanilla pods and we look forward to feature them in Switzerland and start to build a stock too for the private boutique and online shop.
It reminds a bit of the Guadeloupean Terroirs, sweeter though, amande douce, banana, a very subtle floral note - jasmine maybe - woody hint, and almost leathery in the background.
 
We would recommend in desserts and sweet recipes for sure, and worth a try with fine meat like rabbit, faisans, pintade et pintadeaux, actually quite a nice marriage with year's end traditional dishes
